YGBjammy Posted July 5, 2022 Report Share Posted July 5, 2022 8 years younger than Dan Bentley. 5 years younger than O'Leary. Feels like some long term progression planning here (if he's any good). Very intrigued to see how good he is, but always so hard to tell with keepers I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuber Posted July 5, 2022 Report Share Posted July 5, 2022 8 minutes ago, Simon bristol said: I like massengo but im not seeing a host of clubs from around the world get into a bidding war for him at this point. To be fair - we did reject an offer from Freiburg 12 months ago. Fact of the matter is, in this climate post COVID, barely any clubs are stumping up money period in the current market. Ourselves key among them, small tribunal fees and straight free agent signings. It's for the same reason what offers we have received for Semenyo back in January were laughable, who is technically more of a commodity irrespective of the market being a forward player.

Port Said Red Posted July 5, 2022 Report Share Posted July 5, 2022 4 hours ago, Robbored said: Signing another French speaking player………especially a guy he knows well………you never know……… Atkinson and Klose both speak French and Weimann is ok at it apparently. He also has his father and some siblings here so it's not like the kid had been starved of his native language. Plus his English is good enough to joke around with the other lads on some of the videos. I think it's good to hear that he helped sell the club to Bajic, but I don't think it's indicative of his own plans unfortunately. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you say "decent looking" are you referring to his pretty face or his standard of shot saving? I always believed that to be a City goalkeeper, one had to have enormous hands, have a slightly large belly and be about 5ft 10inches in old money; Gibbo and Cashley! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was the last keeper we had in the building of that ilk Frankie Fielding? - height that is, not so much belly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
